the best settings are those that give you the picture you want.
The nice thing about settings are the ability to change them.
Play around with the unit in different places and depths and find those that make you happy with the display.
Customizing is a beautiful thing for the unit..

Oiler your settings look good. Boat speed 3-5 mph chart speed just a little faster than speed . range width   2-1/2 times wider than water depth. Sens. start at midrange .The most important thing is approach the object you
are trying to see don't move its up to you to find the correct angle to get the best image. Gary
